hmmm... each match is 4 days. seeing as he was in the BGOS, lets make it 2. so 2 x how many sets he missed is how many days he gets to match them all.

Uber good idea. If he gets back takes one look and goes screw that, then we'll give him longer.

P.S
I've nearly 1000 posts! Probly all in the last two days. :icon_bigg

what place did he get in the BGOS? if he got like a high placing, why did he come back a step lower to LGOS?

He dropped out. He couldn't handle BGOS so he asked if he could join this one. I said he could if he left the other one.

He's about Cris's and Chrisroks's level anyway so I see no problem.

You pay for tickets and I'm totally there mate, nah. I'd miss my girl!

Good morning Mr "Wanks Daily", hey Black Label.

It's Rheng's set so if he's not to busy perving on his own sig he can set when he's ready. Heelflips due today. I was Gonna have a time limit but I figured I set it 4 Days ago in the morning so just anyone who doesn't have it up when I go to bed (about 15 hours from now) gets a letter.

:biggrin: Games on for Black Label and xXSkater 14Xx.

Get crackin' lads!!!

heelflip match isnt gonna happen for me, would i get a letter if i spin the opposite way on the bigspin? or do i have to spin the same way as the shove its?

Yes or other-wise it's an anti-bigspin which is a damnload harder than the plain Bigspin. And I can't do them might I add. :icon_wink

Heelflips are fairly easy, just pop and push on the other side of the board with your heel. Dig this video
mPWNF4ZOMOQ

and visualise yourself doing everything he does. His foot position (put yours a little higher up) the flick and then sucking your legs around the front side of the board.
Then just go outside and do it!

*note*
It's a video of a triple flip instead of a normal flip coz the movements are more exagerated and watching this video helped me with mine aswell. :icon_peac Just don't put your front foot so far back.

*note2*

Tried hard on the Heelflip today, but I'll have to get a letter for that one, as well as the Fakie flip. I'm just not quite to that level yet. I'm not out of it yet though!

Fakie Big Spin match uploading now...WHAT A FUN TRICK!!! I'm going to be doing those all the time now.

I think I'm taking a letter on the Fakie flip myself, but I've got time so I'm staying optimistic!

I'm glad you liked the Bigspin, it always surprises me how easy they are. Now try Fakie 360 shuvs. Next step up!!!

I landed some fakie 360 shoves, on accident when I forgot to turn my body with the Big Spins. I landed maybe 2 of them. The Big Spin is more fun though, haha.

EDIT: YouTube is taking a really long time to approve my video...

xXSkater14Xx
04-01-2008, 04:59 PM
Is a fakie bigspin not harder than a fakie 360 shove it? Cause its a 360 shove it bodyvarial so it would make it harder.

pooldogfromoz
04-01-2008, 05:08 PM
Remember that guy on here talking about shoulders? Can't remember who but he was exactly right. For a Fakie Bigspin you just do the motions of a normal fakie shuv but while spining your upperbody then landing in Regular.

I'm not very good at Fakie 360 shuvs at all, I could do them but I'd slip out land in primo or lose the board entirely a couple of times before I'd come close.

Fakie Big's are just like "Spin jump catch!" and it feels awesome. I was actually way out of practice with them before this last set. I geuss I owe my newfound love of them to TRALALALAxMan.

Thank you TRALALALAxMAN!!! {rf)

Cris
04-01-2008, 07:22 PM
Wow.

I was in the middle of landing the cleanest fakie flip that I've ever personally done, and my camera dies.

So.. now I'll be lucky if it's done charging before the sun goes down.

@Skater
Love F/S Shuvits. They were the first trick I learned after ollies (they're 10x cleaner than my B/S shuvs, which I can only get every so often)

alright guys. the heelflip match is finished. who didn't post one? i need to know so that i can put it in my sig.

alsoooo, i think im going to get a letter for the fake flip. i still got a day, but i cant do them. my regular kickflips are straight, while my fakie kickflips turn 90. and when it doesnt turn 90, my back foot doesnt want to get on.

Cris
04-01-2008, 08:51 PM
Uploading both Fakie Flip and Fakie Bigspin.

Sorry about the darkness in the Fakie Flip (as well as the extreme sketchyness). I was trying to stay in the light, so I was being really careful in terms of speed. I'll rematch tomorrow if you guys want. I told you it would get dark -_-

The bigspin, I actually caught in the parking lot under the light (once I realized that there was even a source of light at all) right before the camera died (you can see that it dies right when I finish, because I never went back to turn it off).

Merging doublepost
wait. someone said fs and bs were opposite in nollie. is that true?

04-01-2008, 09:14 PM
really? i didn't think it was that hard , i can change my set if you want just let me know.

xXSkater14Xx
04-01-2008, 09:15 PM
no dont. I wanna learn these. is a nollie fs shove it a shove it that goes in front of you?

TRALALALAxMAN
04-01-2008, 09:16 PM
everything is reversed in nollie. so if the shove is going in front of you, its frontside. if its going behind you, its backside. so which side did you do rheng?

R Heng
04-01-2008, 09:17 PM
wait. someone said fs and bs were opposite in nollie. is that true?
oh wait, yeah i guess that would make sense
lemme change it. it guess it would be fs if it were in regular. Can someone clarify this please?

TRALALALAxMAN
04-01-2008, 09:29 PM
rheng did bs. which is when the board goes behind you. its nollie, meaning that its reversed. in any other stance, that would be fs. understand?

Do you want me to PM you guys to let you know when you need to set and on the last day you have to match? If I keep this up I'll officially be the busiest host ever . . .

Maybe I'll get an award!!!

Ok I'm gonna level with you guys.

I've never landed a kickflip but I'm serious about landing this Fakie flip.

When I try to flick the board just shoots away from me. Like flicking with my left foot it shoots off to the left without flipping.

Are there any shortcuts or tips anyone has? Is there a trick to this trick that I'm missing?

my friend had that problem, it sounds like its a combination of you not flick off the side enough and/or you are using your leg to kick the board even though it is more of a flick. Hope that helps! good luck

LOL check this out. I practiced Heelflips FOREVER yesterday and so I had DREAMS about doing them. I was laying on the couch last night with my girlfriend but we were opposite ways, foot to head, you know? So I didn't know I had fallen asleep but all the sudden I'm doing Heelflips, and all the sudden I'm awoken by, "Ow, what the hell are you doing?"

I kicked her right in the head since I was flicking my feet around from the dream! It wasn't real hard so that's why it's funny, haha.

If this isnt too much to ask could you put the sets in order in your sig or else I could put it in mine. I havent been here the whole time but I think its like:
Fakie shuv, fakie ollie, fakie half cab, heelflip, fakie bigspin, nollie shuv

-fakie ollie

-heelflip

^^ i dont think so, cause if you get an extra day or two, then everyone else should get an extra day or two too then.

Sure. They were both pretty sketchy (as were both matches), but they're not usually like that.

What I like to do is to have my back foot where it would be if I were doing a fakie heel. I don't really like having my front foot in the concave - like some people recommend - because I tend to go into a fakie fs 180 underflip. Instead, I like having the ball of my foot in the middle of the board, where I have control over every aspect in the turn.

Once you get that, it's pretty simple as long as you commit yourself. Bend your knees, then wind your arms back and down a little bit, and swing them back. After the snapback, when my body is rotated about 30 degrees, that's when I finally shove the board. The back foot lifts straight up as soon as the front foot begins the f/s shuv, and the front foot kind of moves with it until your body is turned ~45 degrees. Then, just let the board spin under you, and plant your feet, landing in your regular stance. Pivot if need be.

It's really all about the wind-up with the shoulders, because that's what gives you the momentum to shuv the board 360 with the f/s body varial.

Make sure that you're actually shoving the board outwards when you're spinning, rather than just jumping with it.

Idk, I think second round on that. But today I landed one, then the board flew out from under me and i landed really hard on my elbow. but i was happy i landed it, i enjoyed my happiness for a few seconds then went into pain. lol

Uploaded match, Fakie Frontside Bigspin - I needed something to keep my hair out of my eyes so I got naked. Consequently, hundreds of people died from over-loading on Sexi-ness. :biggrin:

BTW, TRALALAxMAN, you need to re-match, I doesn't matter if you under rotate but you have to roll away. Sorry mate but I know you can do it.

TRALALALAxMAN
04-04-2008, 08:12 AM
Pooldog, the people who matched under me didn't roll away either. I just pivoted slower than everyone else. You guys pivoted faster. And plus, I was in a small room. Oh, and if you didn't see, there's a box under my nose of my board that made me not pivot faster.

Are we running out of Learner's tricks already? I will probably set another simple one next round so the learners can breathe a little easier and keep learning new tricks. (Me! Haha.)

Yeah, you're right. I missed that. Your's was just really obvious XD. Sorry mate.

Considering that you and Skater07 didn't roll at all and Ratmandall and I barely rolled I think I'll leave all of ours up to the setter.

Cris, if you feel any or all of us didn't match well enough it's up to you to inform us.

I'm letting you decide coz just as I was about to get half of you guys to re-match I realized I tic-tac'ed pretty heavily too.

At first I bombed hills, then I found a drain and skated some 2 metre high banks for a while. Then I upgraded from berts and 360's on banks to quarterpipes.

Which then turned into bowls. And somewhere in the middle of all that I took up stairs. And after I did some stairsets I learned how to ollie!!! (yes thats right, it's not a typo.)
